Bare Naked Politics

20: What does the House of Lords *actually* do?!


Listen Later

The Sunday Times published a damning article calling for an end to the ‘farce’ of hereditary peers. It inspired Julia to do a episode all about it: What do the House of Lords even do? Why are lords still ‘inheriting’ their seats? How much power do they have over us? And how could we go about changing this system? If you have no idea about the House of Lords, you’re not alone! It seems this is something that has totally passed most of us by. So don’t you think it’s about time we got clued up?
